very true the law seems to be open to interpretation too much and as such
sum police officer or rego guy with a chip on his shoulder can basically
make the biggest c@nt of themselves possible, as has been said before
modifications should take into account the individual not a group. If i was
to install a fj properly and upgrade the brakes properly etc id still be no
better off in their eyes to sumone who just welded the damn thing to sum
bodgy engine mounts until i pay big dollars to get it engineered. WA laws
seem to be a fair bit different to u guys at least we can drive sum left
hand drive cars unchanged. But yeah i was thinking a larger master cylinder
would make the pedal feel sloppy as they have been saying on the list and as
uve identitified a 3/4 m/cylinder feels the best so far for me. Id say as
long as it is working fine and u dont have any need to change it then at
least try ot for a bit as for boosters will i be required by law to run one
or is there a way i can keep my 3/4 master cylinder there until it comes
time for engineering also terry would u be able to email me directly
concerning the r31 rear disc swap [EMAIL PROTECTED] cheers mate :)
